Aiden looked at the five figures surrounding him and felt a headache forming behind his eyes.
The five figures stood thirty meters away. Four of them wore Hunter Association combat gear—reinforced armor, their weapons drawn, and faces hidden behind tactical helmets. They held their weapons with the confidence of professionals, but their stances betrayed tension. Uncertainty.
